The Grammy’s took place over the weekend where many celebrities accepted awards for music in Los Angeles, California.

Many celebrities made political statements about Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as many protests have taken up around the country since two protesters were killed while protesting the agency.

Here are the top three moments from the Grammy’s:

1. Rapper Bad Bunny says “ICE Out” during acceptance speech

Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny made a statement against ICE when he won the Album of the Year award at the 2026 Grammy Awards.

“ICE out,” he said, later adding, “We’re not savage, we’re not animals, we’re not aliens. We are humans, and we are Americans.”

Bad Bunny’s real name is Benito Antonia Martinez and he is performing the Super Bowl halftime show on Feb. 8. He has said in the past he wouldn’t perform in the U.S. because of ICE agents.

2. Singer Billie Eilish makes an anti-ICE sentiment after winning Song of the Year.

After getting her award, Eilish said that no one is illegal on stolen land.

“It’s just really hard to know what to say and what to do right now, and I just feel really hopeful in this room, and I feel like we just need to keep fighting and speaking up and protesting, and our voices really do matter, and the people matter,” she said.

She later could be heard saying, “And f— ICE, that’s all I’m gonna say.”

3. Trump threatens to sue host Trevor Noah over Epstein Island statement

“Song of the Year – that is a Grammy that every artist wants almost as much as Trump wants Greenland, which makes sense because Epstein’s island is gone, he needs a new one to hang out with Bill Clinton,” Noah said while hosting the Grammy’s.

A new batch of files related to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein were released last week.

Following Noah’s statement, President Donald Trump said he would be sending his lawyers to sue him.

“Noah said, INCORRECTLY about me, that Donald Trump and Bill Clinton spent time on Epstein Island. WRONG!!!” the president wrote on Truth Social. “I can’t speak for Bill, but I have never been to Epstein Island, nor anywhere close, and until tonight’s false and defamatory statement, have never been accused of being there, not even by the Fake News Media.”
